Established in 1992, J.L.S. Design was founded to furnish innovative, comprehensive architectural and planning services to the Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area, as well as through Northern California and Northern Nevada.

The mission of this firm is to accommodate a higher level of service while fusing Design, Structure, Personality, Budget, and Environmental Issues into a complete, buildable solution. A small firm by design, J.L.S. Design is able to achieve precise service of your needs and desires, and still maintain clear and accessible communication through the life of the project.

J.L.S. Design maintains a compelling interest in clear material expression and cohesion, based upon a material's inherent structural integrity. Furthermore, we find natural light imperative in spatial transformation. The early union of structural integrity into the creative process allows for fluid development resulting in a more economical resolution.

Experienced in numerous building types, J.L.S. Design's diverse knowledge allows for a broad perspective in delivering a project within budgetary, programmatic, governmental, and environmental parameters.
